Chapter 83 I'm His Fan
Pshaw, having a crush on Lu Yifei is less desirable than having a crush on a dog.
That's what I thought, but I couldn't say it like that. "Um, Auntie, this is my younger sister. She really likes Lu Yifei, but Lu Yifei—you know—"
Seeing Yu Xiaoluo's obedient appearance, Lu's mother was very pleased and her expression immediately changed. "That brat, he doesn't even like such a good girl. What is he thinking? I'll give him a beating when he wakes up."
"Auntie, can we go in and take a look?"
Looking at the cat in her arms, Lu's mother said, "People are fine, but I'm allergic to cat fur, and this cat—"
Actually, the black cat was more sensitive to demonic energy than the two of them, but since Lu's mother said so, Yu Xiaoluo was too embarrassed to bring the cat in again.
She had no choice but to put the cat down, patted Xiao Hei's head, and said, "You stay here for now, we'll come out later."
Xiao Hei reluctantly jumped down and wandered around the aisle.
Mother Lu looked at Yu Xiaoluo with even more affection. "Little girl, and that other one, Xiao Bao, right—come in quickly, I'll go wake him up! That boy is really stupid, always acting like a complete idiot, why is he complaining when someone likes him—"
"No, no, no, that's not necessary," Yu Xiaoluo quickly stopped her.
So the two of them went inside.
Lu's mother pointed in a direction, and Bao Shuoyu and Yu Xiaoluo walked towards Lu Yifei's room.
Ming Jiuyou had already sensed it, but he was no match for Yu Xiaoluo now. He only had one soul and one spirit left. His soul was already incomplete, and he was in the body of an ordinary person. His cultivation level was probably less than one-tenth of what it was before. How could he possibly be a match for Yu Xiaoluo?
Given his current state, he might not reach his original level even in a few years, let alone now. He has no choice but to play the fool and cultivate more.
Ming Jiuyou kept his breathing as steady as when he was asleep, and he also suppressed all his demonic energy, not even a trace of it.
He must not wake up, yes, he absolutely must not wake up!
That girl is too formidable. If he speaks, he might reveal some flaws. Therefore, he would rather play dead than "come back to life"!
Yu Xiaoluo and Bao Shuoyu tiptoed into the room. Turning around, they saw Lu's mother smiling at them from afar in the living room, her face full of affection, as if she were looking at her future daughter-in-law, someone she was very satisfied with.
Yu Xiaolu gave an awkward laugh and then turned around.
The curtains were drawn, letting in only a faint light, making the room somewhat dark.
She glanced around the room but didn't find anything unusual, then turned her gaze to Lu Yifei.
He slept soundly, his breathing even. He had stayed up all night yesterday and then came back alone from the desolate mountains. He must have been both shocked and exhausted, so it's not surprising that he slept so soundly.
She carefully sensed him, but found nothing unusual about Lu Yifei's aura; it was just a normal human aura. Was she overthinking it? Or—
Oh, and there's another possibility: at that time, Lu Yifei was controlled by Ming Jiuyou, so Ming Jiuyou used his body to say those words.
Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense.
Although Yu Xiaoluo still felt that something was a little off, Lu Yifei was right in front of her, and he didn't seem to have any problems, so this was the only explanation.
Bao Shuoyu looked at Yu Xiaoluo, shook his head. He didn't see anything wrong with Lu Yifei either, and said softly, "I'll go find him to play with sometime."
Yu Xiaoluo nodded, and the two of them left the room, gently closing the door behind them.
Mother Lu looked at Yu Xiaoluo with a smile, "Have you finished reading, young lady?"
Yu Xiaolu blushed again, "Auntie, I've finished reading, I've finished reading."
"Why don't we stay here and have a meal together? Lu Yifei might wake up while we're eating, and then I can give him a talking-to and teach him a lesson. Look at the friends he used to hang out with—the clothes they wore, their butts were practically showing, their hair was dyed like turkey's, and their eyes were practically dirty. Auntie likes you just the way you are."
Mother Lu held Yu Xiaoluo's hand, looking her up and down, liking her more and more. "What a wonderful girl! She looks so clean and well-behaved, so cute. If Yifei dares not to like you, I'll break his legs!"
Yu Xiaoluo was so embarrassed that she kept picking at her fingers and desperately tugged at Bao Shuoyu's clothes. Bao Shuoyu smiled and said, "Auntie, my sister and I have something to do, so we won't bother you any longer. We'll come to see you again later."
"Okay, okay, I'll come often in the future."
Under the loving gaze of her mother, Yu Xiaoluo practically fled into the elevator.
Seeing her embarrassed expression, Bao Shuoyu couldn't help but tease her, "Hey, little Luo Luo, you blushed several times today. Your acting is so good, it could win you... you know, an Oscar."
Yu Xiaolu pouted her rosy lips, "Brother Shuoyu, please don't make fun of me. Sigh, pretending to be a secret admirer, I really don't know what I was thinking. I should have just knocked that old lady out—but she seems pretty nice to me—sigh—"
Bao Shuoyu ruffled her dark hair, his face full of teasing, "What's wrong? Have you fallen for his mother and want to be her daughter-in-law?"
Yu Xiaolu slapped his hand away, "Don't talk nonsense, how could that be?"
"Yeah, yeah, that's impossible. Lu Yifei isn't good enough for you. He's not even worthy of carrying your shoes. Alright, alright, now you can go look at the store in peace."
As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they saw several middle-aged women gathered together, eating sunflower seeds and chatting animatedly. They didn't pay any attention to them at first, but Yu Xiaoluo heard a familiar name: Shangguan Peiyu, and couldn't help but stop in her tracks.
Everyone chimed in, saying, "Let me tell you, that woman definitely stole his money and killed him. How could her husband, who was perfectly fine, possibly commit suicide?"
"Yes, yes, all the property was given to that woman Shangguan. He didn't leave a single penny to his own daughter, ex-wife, or parents. How could that be? That woman is truly ruthless and has an ugly way of eating."
"But what can we do? The police can't find anything either."
"I heard that woman knows some kind of mystical arts, she's incredibly powerful, how could the police have found her so easily? Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to become that kind of person, right?"
"One of the three great families of the Xuan family."
"Yes, yes, they're all formidable characters. I heard that even when the deceased's parents brought relatives to make a scene, it was no use. That woman is really something else."
"I can't marry a woman who's too domineering in the future, otherwise the whole family won't even know how they died."
Bao Shuoyu saw that Yu Xiaoluo was listening, so he listened for a while and remembered something. "This morning I saw the news about Shangguan Peiyu's husband's death. It said he committed suicide by jumping off a building and left a suicide note."
